I wondered if they are on the road again because this is 16 minutes of filler crap. Plus
fan uploaded it early today, but at the end of the patron vlog
fan says tomorrow (Thursday) is the first regular B&B weekend of the season.
Begins with
fan in bed, where she says she always begins her day with a walk in the
English withered
garden.
fan spent 2.30 minutes in the garden filming her bush(es). (I skipped through) Definitely filmed on two different days based on
fan's hair.
Then into the scullery where
fan demonstrates how she is now saving coffee grounds for FRK to use in the garden. The coffee grounds are kept in a musical F&M tin which rotates so
fan can start each day with music & coffee. Envision a coffee ground tin playing the piano sounds of a musical ballerina jewel box for a 5-year-old little girl.
Back to bed....
fan says "that is pretty much how I start my day, every day, at the shitoo. The only difference being that the weather changes or the state of advancement of the flowers changes, and I couldn't wait to show Dan the difference in the English Garden when he was here, as he came for Easter. This is what happened when Dan came around, and I'm not quite sure I truly understand the meaning of perennial."
So we're back amongst
fan's bush(es), this time with Dan and his boys. Dan is taking the piss, but ultimately says it looks pretty good.
Back to bed where
fan is narrating. Next, we're off to visit the chickens. They are shy and don't usually come out into the chicken run unless someone enters the chicken house.
fan enters, and en queue the chickens head out to the chicken run.
fan says they are healthy. They keep the food out in the chicken run to entice them outside.
The chickens will be called Blanche Neige (Snow White).
fan also shows off her cherry (tree).
Back to bed....now we're going to see some of the 'gifts'?
Baldilocks received, and some others he ordered himself. There was so much going on over Easter weekend,
fan didn't have time to share it with everybody.
fan & Baldilocks were so busy cleaning & organizing porcelain, but not too busy to open a gift that arrived in the mail from Tom & Anita. Snorty doesn't seem to know who they are either until
fan says they are from the US. Snorty, "Oh my God. I already have 4 of these, although 1 broke. Very, Very nice." Snorty wanted to put them in situ and show them off right away instead of continuing to clean up.
Back to bed.
fan says Baldilocks was so busy over Easter he hasn't had time to put the plaques on the decanters. (Based on the amount of booze
on tap scattered across the shitoo, they're going to need multiple sets).
Next Snorty is opening a box.
fan asks if it's porcelain, but Baldilocks says "NO, it's not porcelain", as though it's okay t to buy more crap as long as it's not porcelanwhatever's in the box
Surprise it's books Baldilocks says he purchased on. Baldilocks says the first book only cost $8.00, but ofcourse he doesn't mention how much it cost to ship + import duties. Pages are falling out, but who cares!
Book 2 - which includes Baldilocks fav. chateau - Chateau St. Cloud
Book 3 - Lots of Mr. Know-it-All history & design lectures..... Louis the 15th, was the great grandson was Louis the 14th, because his his father and grandson died before him......blah, blah, blah.....
Potty comes in the kitchen and mumbles something - who cares! (bad sound)
Book 4 - this is Baldilock's fav. There may have been more books - hard to tell. He's happy it's written in English so he can understand.
Back to bed.....
fan is so excited to have time to read those books. I'm so happy to be home at the shitoo right now. Nite, nite my lovelies!
